Authority: University of Kent (Education)·Consortium: 2 public authorities
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionThe University is seeking a competent, experienced contractor to carry out resurfacing work of Parkwood Road, Canterbury campus and the road safety improvements shown in the drawings provided. A detailed survey and Road Safety Audit has enabled the development of the design which includes: The improvement of existing speed reduction measures, amendments to crossing points, as well as the resurfacing and relining of the carriageway.
Parkwood Road is an integral part of the University, linking the main campus with accommodation, sports facilities, and nursery facilities, as well as the Grounds Maintenance Depot. Due to the busy nature of the campus, the Contractor will need to allow for works to be completed in sections. An outline programme to be agreed in advance.
The successful contractor will be responsible for developing a comprehensive Traffic Management Plan to enable the work while minimising disruption. Night works will be considered.
The Contractor will need to carry out all elements of the works required between Thursday 3rd July 2025 and Friday 1st August 2025.

Published sub-criteria (2)
- Technical: 60%
- Commercial: 40%
Published award criteria (2)
- Commercial: Each Participant’s total cost will be compared against the lowest cost submitted. This allows the Authority to calculate the percentage of marks to be awarded and this percentage is then applied to the total number of marks available for pricing [40 %]. Each response will be compared to the lowest total price or percentage as indicated in the following formula: Score = [[Lowest Price in £/Participant’s Price in £] x price weighting]. Results will be rounded to 2 decimal places
- Technical: Participants must submit a single response to each of the questions listed in the Technical Questionnaire document. For each question, only the information provided specifically within that specific single question will be considered in evaluating the answer to that particular question. Any documentation uploaded elsewhere, or information not detailed within that single question response document, will not be considered in the evaluation of that question.
- Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
